Get StartedEnergy Storage Ireland is a representative association of public and private sector organisations who are interested and active in the development of energy storage in Ireland and Northern Ireland. Delivering the energy storage technologies to enable a secure, carbon free electricity system on the island of Ireland by 2035.
With a target of 80% renewable electricity from intermittent sources on our grid by 2030, Ireland will require a significant amount of energy storage in the years to come.
This is the first electricity storage policy published in Ireland. The Irish Government’s Climate Action Plan 2021 set out the need for an energy storage policy for Ireland to support 75% reduction in power sector CO2 emissions by 2030.
FuturEnergy Ireland has assessed a range of these solutions in the context of the Irish power system. To date we have identified Form Energy’s Iron-Air technology as the one with the greatest potential to cost-effectively tackle these problems in the Irish market. Form’s iron-air system is:
New and emerging long duration storage technologies will play a critical role in delivering an affordable, fully decarbonised power system to the people of Ireland. #1 We have a problem: The amount of wasted renewable energy in Ireland is projected to increase exponentially as we attempt to deliver on our power system decarbonisation targets.
Appropriate and timely regulatory and market design is therefore essential to allow the deployment of energy storage in Ireland at the scale required to achieve current environmental policy objectives. However, the current policy framework is unsuitable to deliver the volumes and types of energy storage we will require.
The global commercial and industrial solar energy storage battery market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with demand increasing by over 400% in the past three years. Large-scale battery storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability goals and federal investment tax credits that reduce total system costs by 30-35%. Europe follows with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets are adopting commercial storage for peak shaving and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 3-6 years. Modern industrial installations now feature integrated systems with 50kWh to multi-megawatt capacity at costs below $500/kWh for complete energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar energy storage battery performance while reducing costs for commercial applications. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal performance with 50% less energy loss, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $1,000/kW to $550/kW since 2022. Smart integration features now allow industrial systems to operate as virtual power plants, increasing business savings by 40% through time-of-use optimization and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage protection and thermal management systems have reduced insurance premiums by 30% for commercial storage installations. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple battery additions at just $450/kWh for incremental storage. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial projects typically achieving payback in 4-7 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (50-100kWh) starting at $25,000 and premium systems (200-500kWh) from $100,000, with flexible financing options available for businesses.
